Josh,
Booth members will wear PostgreSQL.Org shirts. PostgreSQL.Org will
provide the shirts. Other shirts will not be allowed for booth
volunteers. Remember it is all about PostgreSQL.Org. :)
Keep in mind that many/most booth people *are* volunteers, so we can't be
jerks about it. Ultimately, we need them more than they need us, and often
it's all we can do to get a booth fully staffed.
So I think it's more applicable to have a supply of T-shirts on hand and to
strongly encourage all booth volunteers to wear them.
Can I also suggest having at least black and white ones? You wouldn't
get me in a white one without a serious amount of cash or beer for
example, and I imagine others feel the same way.
I am worried a dark blue t-shirt on top of a light blue EnterpriseDB
long-sleeve shirt is going to look rediculous. I am thinking I will
just avoid helping in the booth.
I still feel this policy is very non-open-source-like, but maybe that is
the point.
You could just change your shirt instead of pulling one over another. If you do it at the booth you might even get more people to come and visit (I guess that's where Josh B.'s objection to the non-PC term "booth bunnies" is applicable). You could probably duck behind the new banner and do it (without too many ooglers) - or a nearby restroom?
Or just wear the EDB one over the PG one....
